Fees And Charges

Investor Education

As with all financial services, investors will incur fees and charges when investing in Unit Trust funds. While investing in Unit Trust funds is an economic method of investing in a range of investments, it is important that you fully understand the fees, charges and other costs associated as these costs are not insignificant.

Direct Fees and Charges

These are costs borne directly by an individual investor, and include:

Sales Charge/Entry Fee

You may be imposed with sales charge/entry fee when you invest in unit trust funds. Some funds such as bond funds may not impose any sales charge/entry fee.

Exit Fee

Some funds may have an exit fee which is incurred when you liquidate your investment.

Switching Fee

Switching fee is an administrative fee which is imposed on all switches between equity and non-equity funds.

Transfer Fee

Transfer fee is an administrative fee which is imposed on the transfer of units to another beneficiary and between accounts of the same beneficiary.

Other Charges

In executing your transaction, certain charges may be incurred. For instance, bank charges, telegraphic charges and courier charges. We reserve the right to vary such conditions from time to time, which shall be communicated to you in writing.

Non-Discretionary Fees and Charges

These are costs indirectly incurred by investors when investing in Unit Trust funds.

Annual Management Fee

Annual management fees are charged by Unit Trust Management Companies to cover the costs of managing the Unit Trust fund. These costs include fund management expenses, administrative and operating expenses, marketing and distribution costs, and general overheads of the Unit Trust Management Company. The annual management fee will be paid out of the Funds and will be calculated based on the NAV of the Funds and accrued on a daily basis.

Trustee Fee

The trustee fee is paid to the Trustee of the Unit Trust fund for their services on safeguarding the Unit Trust fund’s assets and ensuring they are invested according to the Deed. Similar to the annual management fee, the trustee fee will be paid out of the Funds and will be calculated based on the NAV of the Funds and accrued on a daily basis.

Expenses

These expenses are necessary for the business of the Funds, and are to be incurred/incurred by the Funds. Only those expenses set out in the Deed can be paid out of the Funds.

Commissions or fees paid to brokers or dealers in effecting dealings in the investments of the Fund;
Charges or fees paid to the sub-custodian;
Tax and other duties charged on the Fund by the government and/or other authorities;
Costs, fees and expenses properly incurred by the auditor appointed for the Fund;
